The Minister of Internal Security, Christie Naim, said that the US Secret Service is looking for a position of former FBI director James Komei, where she and others at the White House say it is a threat to President Donald Trump
“James Comey, the former director of the FBI, called for the assassination of Botus Trump,” she said on Thursday. “DHS and Secret Service check this threat and will respond appropriately.”

The FBI director, Cash Patel, also said in a post on X that his agency is aware of the post from Kumi and provides support to the Federal Investigation Office.
In the Instagram post that has been deleted since then, Comey had an image that displays “8647” written in seashells on the beach, with an illustrative designation, “forming the wonderful crust on the walking of the beach.”
Some of Trump’s extreme right -wing allies, including Laura Lumer, claimed that Komei calls for violence against the president.
For “86”, something has somewhat wide explanations as a colloquial term – and it can simply mean Nix or “get rid of” something.
Come said he thought the message was political, but he did not realize that she called for violence against Trump.
“This has never happened, but I oppose violence of any kind,” Kumi said in an Instagram follower.
Anthony Julielmi, head of the US Secret Service Communications in a statement to ABC news, said that “the agency” is strongly fulfilled in anything that can be considered a potential threat against our protection, “and the publication made by Kumi.
